Inspiration For Friday

Do It AnywayPeople are often unreasonable,illogical and self-centered;Forgive them anyway.If you are kind,people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;Be kind anyway.If you are successful,you will win some false friends and true enemies;Succeed anyway.If you are honest and frankpeople may cheat you;Be honest anyway.What you spend years building,someone could destroy overnight;Build anyway.If you find serenity and happiness,they may be jealous;Be happy anyway.The good you do today,people will often forget tomorrow;Do good anyway.Give the world the best you have,and it may never be enough;Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.You see, in the final analysis,it is between you and God;It was never between you and them anyway.

Mother Theresa

I love this poem, and thought it would be nice to post it today for a little inspiration.I am thinking maybe I could do this once a week, a photo and a snippet of something that makes you go ... ahhhhh.. that is so true, or something that makes you smile ;)

I have been playing with my camera and a new tripod today. There is so much to learn...

Picked some forget-me-nots from the garden and remembered about this beautiful little tea cup my aunt gifted me years ago. If you are interested it is from the "Royal Albert" , Memory Lane collection, and is probably considered vintage by now, I have to have had it at least 30 years.

I love how these forget-me-knots are different shades of pinks, blues, purple and white. They are growing all over the place in my mom's garden so I dug some out and put the in pots for my own garden. They have a lovely scent too, so delicate.

My photo has been edited for an artistic look, using textures and a quote brush by Kim Klassen .
